Galaxy Entertainment Group Reports Q4 & Annual 2020 Results

Continue Working Closely With Macau Community to Control COVID-19

Q4 2020 Group Adjusted EBITDA Of $1.0 Billion Vs $(0.9) Billion Loss In Q3 2020

Continue Investing In Macau’s Economic Future By Upgrading Existing Properties & Progressing Phases 3 & 4 Remains Financially Healthy

HONG KONG–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Galaxy Entertainment Group (“GEG”, “Company” or the “Group”) (HKEx stock code: 27) today reported results for the three month and twelve month periods ended 31 December 2020. (All amounts are expressed in HKD unless otherwise stated)

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF GALAXY ENTERTAINMENT GROUP

I wish to take this opportunity to update you on the status of Macau and the performance of GEG in 2020. COVID-19 has continued to impact the community and businesses globally including Macau and GEG. In Q4 2020, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau continued to experience travel restrictions and social distancing measures as they continued to effectively contain the pandemic. Given the subdued revenue the Group’s Adjusted EBITDA was $1.0 billion for the fourth quarter. This represents a 207% improvement compared to the Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.9 billion reported in Q3. This improvement was largely driven by an increase in visitation which translated into increased revenue and continuing cost control. The full year Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.0) billion versus $16.5 billion in 2019.

We again applaud the Macau Government for their proactive leadership during the challenging pandemic crisis. Their focus is not only to ensure the health and safety of the community, but also ensuring that Macau is well positioned to attract visitors, support economic recovery and maintain the social stability of Macau.

We continue to make good progress with our development projects including Cotai Phases 3 & 4. In the meanwhile, we renovate, reconfigure and introduce new products to our resorts. In addition, we remain engaged in our international expansion plans including Japan, which is also being impacted by the pandemic.

Due to our conservative financial management, the Group’s net cash as at year end provides us with valuable flexibility in managing our ongoing operations and allows us to continue with our longer term development plans.

In the Macau Policy Address for 2021, Chief Executive Mr. Ho Iat Seng stated that the Government will promote the stable and healthy development of the gaming industry, and to commence preparatory and preliminary work for the new gaming concessions. We are looking forward to the launching of the public consultation in the 2H 2021.

Upholding the philosophy of “what is taken from the community is to be used for the good of the community”, we have been proactively supporting Macau and the Mainland during this epidemic. GEG has been working with the community to combat the outbreak through an array of practical initiatives, including: offering cash donations, donating hygiene & essential supplies, supporting local SMEs and providing timely assistance to numerous non-profit welfare and social service organizations and schools. In addition, GEG also adopted and supported all protective measures laid out by the Health Bureau of the Macau SAR Government and strengthened the epidemic prevention measures within our resorts.

In the medium to longer term, we have great confidence in the future of Macau. We have seen signs of early recovery post the reinstatement of the IVS in late September 2020 and it may take a few more quarters for business volumes to ramp up. However, we do acknowledge the ongoing difficulties associated with COVID-19 and potential future flare ups of COVID-19 could have a material adverse impact on our financial performance. Given the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, today the Board of Directors has decided not to declare a dividend.

We are pleased to hear that Macau and other locations are proceeding with their COVID-19 vaccination rollout plans. We believe that when Mainland and international tourists make future travel plans, health and safety will be foremost in their minds.

Finally, I would again like to acknowledge and thank the health and emergency personnel who have worked so hard to ensure the safety of Macau. I would also like to thank our staff, management team and Board of Directors who voluntarily contributed to the various cost savings programs and for being so supportive of our Company during this period of time. Thank you!

Development Update

Galaxy Macau™ and StarWorld Macau

We continue to make ongoing progressive enhancements to our resorts to ensure that they remain competitive and appealing to our guests.

Cotai – The Next Chapter

GEG is uniquely positioned for long term growth. We are proceeding with the development of Phases 3 & 4 and continue to review and refine plans to ensure a world-class optimal development. We see the premium market evolving with this segment preferring higher quality and spacious rooms. Phases 3 & 4 combined will have approximately 3,000 high end and family rooms and villas, 400,000 square feet of MICE space, a 500,000 square feet 16,000-seat multi-purpose arena, F&B, retail and casinos, among others. We will try to maintain our development targets, however due to COVID-19, development timelines may be impacted. At this point we cannot quantify the impact but we will endeavor to maintain our schedule.

Hengqin / Greater Bay Area

We continue to make progress with the planning of our project on Hengqin that will complement our high energy resorts in Macau.

We are also expanding our focus beyond Hengqin and Macau to potentially include opportunities within the rapidly expanding Greater Bay Area.

International

Our Japan based team continues with our Japan development efforts even as they deal with the COVID-19 crisis. We view Japan as a long term growth opportunity that will complement our Macau operations and our other international expansion ambitions. GEG, together with Monte-Carlo SBM from the Principality of Monaco and our Japanese partners, remain interested in bringing our brand of World Class IRs to Japan.
